Love triangle
Episode 1
Chrystal's POV
I woke up in the morning to the terrible pain in my head.. I breathed out in pain and held my head.. It was awful!
"Christine!" I called lowly and shook her a little because she's a deep sleeper.
"Hmm!" She grumbled from inside her sleep.
"Wake up" I said with little energy.
she woke up and scratched her eye balls to the root.
"Chrystal what's it?" She finally said as she watched how I held my head.
She sat up in a hurry and touched my skin.
"Oh My God!" She exclaimed.
" You're running a very high temperature" She said shocked.
She laid me back on the bed and rushed downstairs .
She probably went to alert the others. I was really weak... It felt like I was carrying a mountain on my head. Oh! why did I have to fall sick now? We don't even have enough money!.
I heard few steps and then the door flung open.
"Chrystal!" Amelia called and sat next to me. "What happened to her?" She asked.
"She's complaining of a headache and her temperature is really high" Christine explained.
"Oh dear!... She has a fever. We need to take her to the hospital" Amelia suggested.
"Hospital?! We don't have enough money to do that and it's just a fever right? We have a nurse neighbor so just go call her" Prisca said pointing her finger in the direction of the door.
"How sure are you that it's fever?... We both know this isn't the first time she's having such problems" Ivan added with all seriousness.
"Pls we have to do something" Christine said with heavy eyes.
Prsica ran out of the room ... she's definitely going to find the nurse. I couldn't think well nor say anything.. I just watched as they were all worried.

Christine's POV
" A little rest will do the trick after this medicine" The nurse said all dressed in her attire.. She was preparing for work before we called.
She handed over the medicines to Amelia who was standing right next to her.
"She's really weak . If after the medicine all these symptoms still persist, you have to take her to see a doctor" She marked.
"Okay" I replied.
"Pls Arnold see her to the door"
I can't believe this, Why now?? Oh Chrystal... pls wake up.
I stared at her ... She was fast asleep. The nurse also connected a drip to her hand.
"She'll be fine" Amelia assured and gave me a side hug.
I wiped the tears from my eyes and nodded, gulping down the saliva in my mouth.
We all left the room for Chrystal to rest and settled in the parlour.
We sat down to discuss how we're gonna get money... and if there are any favourable job opportunities out there.

Intro- I'm Christine Raymond and that was my twin sister Chrystal. We are fraternal twins, yeah! Non identical. We lost our parents years back and they left this house for us.
We couldn't live her alone so we invited out street friends with no one to care for them to come join us and it has been remarkable.
We have lived together for too long that we are now like family.. Arnold ,Jerome, Prisca , Amelia , Ivan , I and my sister.
